It’s also a green city in the energy-consciousness sense. Portland ranks as one of the most bike-friendly cities in the U.S., if not the most bike-friendly; it was the first U.S. city to adopt a plan to cut greenhouse emissions; and it boasts dozens of buildings that meet or beat sustainability standards.

Now, SpareFoot is celebrating the greenness of Portland with our Clean & Green Portland Giveaway. In the giveaway, one household in the Portland area will receive a $300 gift card for an eco-friendly cleaning from Portland’s ECOMAIDS.
